Each child matters.

INQUIRY-BASED
LEARNING

Self-direction is a critical skill for success in both post-secondary education and the workplace. Inquiry-based approaches to learning encourage students to build valuable and transferable skills.

PROGRAMME DESIGN

The Junior School learning environment is based on an emergent approach to learning. In order to meet the individual requirements of each student, parents will meet with the teacher to provide input in determining the year goals.

The curriculum covers Math, Language Arts, Social Studies, Science, Physical and Health Education, Arts Education, Career Education, Applied Design, Skills and Technologies and French. Students’ learning is inquiry-based so that your child has the opportunity to explore and engage with topics in a variety of ways.

Together with classmates, your child will be offsite frequently, interacting with the community and learning from the real world. Teachers will find destinations that will engage the children intellectually, emotionally, and physically to inspire learning.
